Cover von John Ruskin: John Ruskin: Praeterita (PDF)

Praeterita is perhaps the best-loved of all the fruits of Ruskin’s many-sided and tormented genius. This exceptional biography – the first of Ruskin’s works in the Whitehouse edition – simultaneously presents a deeply reflective portrait of an early 19th-century Protestant family – its genuine piety, its severities, its suffocating possessive affections – and the product (at once intellectually brilliant and emotionally damaged) of its educational system.
